So finally I've had some time off! Today I went to a beach by the resort all day long and it was AMAZING! The water here is beautiful. I could swim in it all day(and I did!) Alex went to santorini yesterday so I'm at the house alone... Its kinda weird but nice at the same time. He'll be gone for about a week and I think some new people will be arriving before then. So this week will bring some changes. I started learning manicures and facials this week. I'm not sure how regularly I will be doing them but my boss said he wants me to become an expert.... I hope that I wont have to tooo much because I like doing hair so much more but it will be good to have that ... read more

Friday 1st May Exploring Mykonos We knew the run of good nights sleep would have to end at some point and it was here in Elenis Rooms that was to happen.One of the problems with tiled floors and hard surfaces for walls is that any noise is at least trebled.!! And so it was to be from the early hours until 4am other guests(we have another name for them that is not printable)kept arriving home and banging and crashing their way into their room through the front door and their adjacent bedroom door as they came from home from the nightclubs nearby.We had taken count of the number of bedrooms on our floor and that had numbered six.Now we were tucked up in bed so that made 5 rooms to fill at worst.We gave up after ... read more

HAPPY EASTER!!! Not sure you can find a place for a pin on your map for this stop. Our daily program describes Mykonos as follows: “A Greek Island and a mass tourist destination renowned for its cosmopolitan character and its intense nightlife.” We arrived here at noon and are leaving tonight at 7 P.M. We have to use the ship's tenders here, the weather is cool and windy and the sea is rough, so Granny Lynne and I opted to stay on board. The one photo shows you what we missed by not going ashore. Tomorrow we are in Athens, Greece, where we have another private tour scheduled. Love, Granddaddy and Granny Lynne Please click on the links below for the tracking map, the Queen Victoria Bridge webcam and the Queen Victoria tracking map. Chuck and ... read more

We woke up, saw it was raining, and decided to go back to sleep due to the slight depression that we had since we couldn’t be spending the day at the beach. After we all woke up and were ready, we walked around town, went to a honey store, and got free samples. We bought sesame honey bar, a specialty of Mykonos. We had a big breakfast/lunch at Perfectos. I had a big Greek pizza and some Greek coffee. I ate half the pizza and bought the rest home to save for dinner! We did some pre-gaming in the room and then went out. We met some Greek men in the kabob shop and they told us to come back later to party and go out. So we did- and had a blast! They gave us ... read more
